Electronic Marketing and electronic marketing Strategy We also must look at general marketing strategy which must be holistic amongst an organisation in order to achieve the set objectives.Therefore many parts of forming electronic marketing strategy are also seen within the formation of general marketing strategy Target markets The online population can be segmented into different target groups based on certain characteristics mentioned earlier.

1/3 of Australians online have made a purchase via in the internet.

45% of New Zealanders have made a purchase via the internet

Studies show that people who purchase goods over the internet have a higher income. Customer Relationship management Customer relationship management refers to techniques and processes used to Identify, track and use customer information in order to provide them with greater customer service and to keep them returning to shop again through an establishment of good long term relationships. Positive CRM can lead to:Positive word of mouthCreates a sense of difficulty if a customer were to decide they wanted to change to a different provider.

Problems with CRM:Customers have grown cynicalCustomers expect to much from some organisationsSome CRM software packages suffer from cluttered interfacesSometimes relied on too heavily by organisations The marketing mix Creating a marketing mix for online users is very similar to creating the overall marketing mix. However it is different in its specifics and approaches.

The four parts of the marketing mix involve:ProductPricingPromotionDistribution Product The most efficient selling of products online refers to those that can be sold entirely as digital products such as music. Contrastingly business to business transactions however make up the largest part of online purchases made. (Ex. Making a haircut appointment and paying for it online) Pricing Consumers can now research the price of an item through exploring a single dedicated website.Marketers must find new ways to distinguish themselves from other brands. Prices online must remain consistent with those in store or they will lose business and confuse customers. Promotion Information available today has forced businesses to compete with all new organisations. (Ex. Dymocks competing with Amazon) Marketers must offer a better value than competitors.Should perform environment scans. Distribution The internet can be used as a distribution platform.Customers can see when a good is in stock, pay for it online and find out how long it will take to reach them all through the internet.A major challenge for an organisation is to keep the cost of delivery at a minimum Evaluation e-marketing effectiveness Many of the issues associated with real world marketing also apply to E marketing

It is very difficult to determine success.

Specific data gained from people entering a website by clicking on an advertisement is very useful.

The online environment is extremely interactive and creates a situation in which an organisation is far more likely to receive detailed qualitative information from their customers. Supply Chain Management: The process of getting raw materials made into products before sending them to the retailer and the consumer. The internet can aid this process through allowing organisations to connect with each other and manage their stock in real time. Intranets and Extranets: Intranets can hold large amounts of crucial information for an organisation including product information, training materials and even an online community.Extranets are private networks that operate amongst a number of different organisations. (ex. A computer company having an extranet with a delivery company to share information) The Virtual Organisation Virtual organisations are cost effective and can share information with ease.

The internet has made it simple for organisations to bring together specialists and teams to confront certain tasks.

It is now cheaper and more efficient to hire individuals to maintain different areas within an organisation.
